Bowen and Scar therapist
ScarWork Adapted for Breast surgery and reconstruction
This gentle technique is suitable for scars from:
Mastectomy, WLI (lumpectomy) and breast re-construction scars (TUG, DIEP, TRAM, LAT Flap etc)
It doesn’t matter if your scar feels thick and lumpy, or tight and puckered, or feels like a gap of spongy tissue – there is a technique adapted to help stimulate improvement.
ScarWork treatment is not painful, and usually gently progresses through the layers of tissue from the upper levels of the skin, deep into the fascia and muscles at the speed that is right to help promote your recovery.
